Reading comp.mail.pine can be educational, but can also be
tiresome. The number of FAQs that keep popping up is appalling. I'm
beginning to understand the need for the
Nancyboys. I
post a periodic informational post on the
1st and 15th of every month that answers several
FAQs and points people to further information. I hope this will reduce the
number of FAQs being asked.

Frequently asked questions, and answers

Occasionally, you will see me write stuff like (M)ain (S)etup
Collection(L)ist . That means that you should type in M S L, or
in other words, go to the Main screen, choose Setup, and then Collection
Lists. That convention is used throughout this FAQ list.

Finally, this is NOT a general Pine FAQ. This is collection of answers
to questions that are seen frequently in comp.mail.pine.
